my name is mwd

The title about sums it up – today I got my new bike:

I’m very happy. The Ulysses is a nice bike to ride, and I got it all the luggage too. I’m currently in the “breaking in” stage, which means no more than 55 mph until 500 miles, and then no more than 65 until 1000 miles, so treading very carefully at the moment, but that’s fine, as the Uly is nice to ride at any speed. Anyway, there’ll be more pics up at some point no doubt – Laura got this one before I’d even sat on it :)
